13 | | -We have found that AI will frequently hallucinate issues that are not actually |
14 | | -problems in practice, report incorrect information, and describe problems that |
15 | | -are actually not issues at all. If AI identifies a problem with this codebase, |
16 | | -please make sure you understand what it is saying and have independently |
17 | | -confirmed that the issue exists before submitting a bug report or pull request. |
| 4 | +We want our code to be art. We want to interact with real humans. Please don't |
| 5 | +submit AI-generated comments or code in bug reports or pull requests. We |
| 6 | +understand some people consider AI to be a useful tool, but we want to connect |
| 7 | +with you, not your computer. |
